Finding Hidden Attack Surface in Any Web App — Real Pentest Methodology

Most web app recon tutorials skip the methodology — they show you the answer, not the workflow that finds it. This video walks the actual methodology pentesters use to find attack surface that's reachable but not exposed in the UI: forgotten routes, orphaned API endpoints, dev-only features that shipped to production by accident.

The workflow uses four tools — Burp Suite to capture the baseline, LinkFinder to extract endpoints from JavaScript, ffuf to enumerate the API surface server-side, and browser DevTools to extract the client-side SPA route table. We demonstrate on OWASP Juice Shop, but the workflow is portable to any modern web application: Angular, React, Vue, Next.js, anything.
